A window frame protection system, for holding an exterior and an interior protective panel against a window, includes an extruded lineal having a first stacked screw boss, an exterior protective panel and a groove with covering cap. Anchoring screws driven through the exterior panel and into the stacked screw boss hold the panel to the lineal. A chamber for a second stacked screw boss, and a part of the extruded lineal, is to attach an interior panel to the window frame when additional window protection is needed and when the exterior of the window frame is not accessible. The second stacked screw boss may be inserted into the chamber during construction or, if the chamber is left open, may be added only when needed. A sash support on the interior of the window frame receives a sill riser for meeting higher design loads on the window sash.

Examples of the present disclosure provide an overhead door panel. The overhead door panel includes a pair of parallel glass panes, a metal frame with parallel lateral stiles oriented perpendicular to the pair of parallel glass panes, a first seal system located at a first lateral stile, and a second seal system located at a second lateral stile, wherein the first seal system and the second seal system engage with at least one glass pane of the pair of parallel glass panes and a lateral stile of the parallel lateral stiles of the metal frame such that the first seal system and the second seal system are between the at least one glass pane and the lateral stile.

A building component includes a frame including a first material and cladding connected to the frame. The building component also includes a thermal break defined by the frame intermediate a first side and a second side of the building component and an insulating material within the thermal break. The building component further includes an insulated glass unit including a first glass pane and a second glass pane spaced from the first glass pane. The first glass pane and the second glass pane define a pocket therebetween. The thermal break and the pocket define a continuous thermal break when the building component is in a closed position.

A method of assembling a window includes positioning an insulating material in a frame thermal break defined by a middle portion of a frame intermediate a first side and a second side of the window. The method also includes connecting a cladding to the frame. The frame includes a first material visible on the first side of the window. The cladding includes a second material visible on the second side of the window. The method also includes connecting a first glass pane to a second glass pane to form an insulated glass unit and positioning the insulated glass unit in the frame. The method further includes aligning the frame thermal break and a pocket of the insulated glass unit such that a central plane of the pocket extends through a middle portion of the frame thermal break. The frame thermal break and the pocket define a continuous thermal break extending through the window.

An exterior wall panel with a vented insulated glass unit with the air space between the glass panes pressure equalized with exterior air. The vented insulated glass unit is configured to eliminate the requirement for a perfect seal around the insulated glass unit perimeter, limit water condensation within the insulated glass unit, limit water infiltration, and maintain thermal insulation performance.

A window includes an insulated glass unit and a frame supporting the insulated glass unit. The insulated glass unit includes a first glass pane and a second glass pane spaced from the first glass pane. A central plane extends through a pocket defined between the first glass pane and the second glass pane. The frame includes a first material visible on a first side of the window. The window also includes cladding connected to the frame. The cladding includes a second material visible on a second side of the window. The frame defines a cavity that extends between the first side and the second side and inhibits moisture from the first side contacting the second material. The window includes a thermal cavity defined by the frame and aligned with the pocket.
